Hopefully a CCS charging port.



I don't buy that. The main loss of energy on nearly any car is aerodynamic drag. Car manufacturers put looks ahead of aero because they know the masses of people don't have a clue and don't care. And designing and aerodynamic car isn't expensive with the tools and technology we have now.

I figured stupid democrats would get in charge again and drive the gas price to over $3 a gallon and if I didn't like my leaf I could get what I paid for it in 2 or 3 years.

If you want a css so bad there's a bunch of css vehicles for sale right now.

Talking about the electronics as far as aerodynamic efficiency most people don't want to buy something that looks like a lightyear or Aptera. When stopped and everything else off electric cars draw several hundred watts just to keep the inverter powered up. At highway speed the inverter losses are negligible. Inverters that draw almost no power at idle have been around for nearly 20 years, just not on cars.
